Lumo beads are readily available at tackle stores.
Thread one on your leader before tying on the hook.
A quick zap with an old camera flash or a decent torch & the glow should be good as...

yep... lots of lumo options for your sp's...
lumo sinkers, lumo jig heads, lots of lumo soft plastics, lumo beads... i also recall reading somewhere that you can even get a lumo sauce that you can rub over your soft plastic to make it glow in the dark... |

| the lime pepper gulps are lumo-who needs lumo sinkers when the sp itself is lumo |
